A site about Wordpress Plugins and all

Finaly, Folder Gallery is back on wordpress.org. I had to remove all lightbox JS engine because of license issue. That means Folder Gallery won’t work as expected out of the box. You have to install by hand at least one lightbox engine (or plug-in). See FAQ. Thanks for your patience.

Folder Slideshow was my first attempt to create a folder-slideshow plugin. It uses SlidesJS jQuery Plugin. But SlidesJS has only a few options, so I’ve decided to move to bxSlider jQuery Plugin. Instead of updating my Folder Slideshow plugin (and possibly breaking some web sites using it), I’ve preferred to create another plugin with a different name.

If you use Folder Slideshow, you should consider moving to Folder Slider, since I should not update Folder Slideshow anymore.

This new plugin works the same way as Folder Slideshow, using a shortcode to create a slider from a folder of pictures uploaded somewhere on the server. You can customize the slider with many options.

I’ve released a new version of Folder Gallery. You can now choose to display a single thumbnail (and even none) instead of the full gallery thumbnails. Just add the short code attribute thumbnails='single'. Enjoy!

Yesterday, I’ve released version 0.97 of Folder Gallery. The main changes are related to the lightbox JS engine.

You can now choose between Lightbox 2 and Fancybox 2 to display your gallery. A third option (already available in 0.95) is to use Lightview 3. But you have to install Lightview by hand (see readme).

A last option (“None”) removes all lightbox script from the galleries generated by Folder Gallery. That way, you can use another plug-in to display the gallery pictures. This works with many lightbox plugin including Fancybox 1.0.7+ by Kevin Sylvestre, jQuery Colorbox 4.5+ by Arne Franken, Lightview Plus 3.1.3+ by Puzich.
